- The Compatibility Game is designed to help two people in a relationship (romantic or otherwise) assess their level of compatibility.
- It helps to a) identify areas of alignment and divergence in their values, ambitions, goals or beliefs and b) discuss the significance of these.
- Crucially, the game does not suggest that incompatibilities cannot be overcome: the basis of successful relationships is not compatibility but compromise.
- The box contains two sets of 80 cards (2 x 75 ‘statement’ cards plus 5 ‘blank’ cards) – each person has their own set.
- The ‘game’ involves two players choosing the cards that most closely accord with their own POV and comparing their choices with the other player to assess their levels of compatibility.
